Will Disney Keep Us Amused?

Wow. This is a rather in-depth article from the New York Times. It started off as an article about California Adventure and its upcoming renovations. Then it goes into the description of the Toy Story Mania attraction and all the new technology surrounding it. After that, it analyzes the instant-gratification and technology-savvy crowd that demands entertainment that Toy Story Mania could provide. The article then discusses why Disney needs to have a healthy theme park business and touched upon the Disney theme parks outside of the US. Then it goes back to and in-depth development and history of the Toy Story Mania attraction (are you still following me?), including a discussion on the Mr. Potato Head that will greet and entertain the guests standing in line.

Phew!

Like I said, this is definitely a very detailed article on this one attraction that included a part of Disney "history" involving Pixar and the Toy Story franchise.
